We stayed for a one night stop while passing through. The pine pollen was bad while we were here.

This park is absolutely beautiful! We stayed at site 42, which offered a gorgeous sunset view over the lake. However, there was a significant water leak at the site, creating a very large puddle over a large portion of the site. We reported it to the attendant, and if we had been staying longer than one night, we would have requested a different site. Despite this minor issue, we enjoyed our visit and would definitely return. The parks scenery make it a perfect destination!

A quiet and beautiful stay at site 41. Even the rain and very strong winds couldnt dampen our enthusiasm.

Super Campground! Wonderful lakefront sites with lots of room between sites. Great walking trails, very smooth & level concrete pads. Easy to book & Enjoy!

A few things set them apart from other campgrounds. 1. When I got to my site, it was blown out; not even a twig was on the ground! I appreciate that, living in a tent. Rocks and twigs can punch holes in the floor! The site I had had a beautiful view of the water. When a storm blew in, my tent was doing the cha-cha. I asked if I could move, and you guys found me a site in the woods off the shore that offered me some protection from the wind. You worked with me! I appreciated that. Always a smiling face, I felt like I was with friends! As a writer, I crave peace and quiet so I can focus, you had that in spades. I can say after camping for a year straight, they do it better than anybody! Thank you

Beautiful and quiet when we were there. Loved having a lake view. Campground was clean. Laundry needs to be updated. Would definitely stay there again
@ChrisW1509692 · Camped on Feb 17, 2025 at Campsite #102
Shafer Heard was as great as always. Make sure you watch your tank levels as there are no full hook-up sites. We really liked our site in the 100 section. Open sites and open water. Great all around.
@MaurineRF92DF8 · Camped on Feb 14, 2025 at Campsite #22
Enjoyed our stay.
@LeslieB6141102 · Camped on Feb 14, 2025 at Campsite #5
The site was nice and easy to back into. However, we had to leave a day early. The power was out at the campground for over 12hrs.
@JeremyW9900952 · Camped on Feb 13, 2025 at Campsite #74
great park, great hosts
@AdoliaE1A14FE4 · Camped on Feb 12, 2025 at Campsite #102
Nice place. Bathroom situation was less than nice. Sites were not clean. Trash, old plastic in fire pit.
@RhondaH41E1540 · Camped on Feb 12, 2025 at Campsite #49
One of the best campgrounds Ive been too on my road trips. Peaceful is the word I would use while staying there, on the banks of the lake. Very scenic and full of nature. My doggies loved our walks. Me too! Staff/Host were amazing to me while there, helpful, especially Valerie, restroom/common area personnel of the park. She was definitely a sweet person with a huge smile. Its on my list for a return visit in the future. Thank you for a well-maintained home away from home.
@LaTrendaT574D6 · Camped on Feb 7, 2025 at Campsite #42
Really enjoy the West Point Lake Campgrounds. Overall, good place to camp. Suggestion - improve the interior look of the bathroom near the #40 area sites. It needs some freshening up.

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
